Sister Signs in a time of need


I've been thinking of my Mary lately and I feel like she's been around a  little more too.  She's always been my cheerleader, especially when I need her most. This was one of those times.

Today I received this positive affirmation that spoke to me and I just knew it was meant for me when it appeared in my social media feed:
Then, as I was headed to an appointment, a big cardinal on a truck crossed my path.


But it was this final sign that confirmed it:
As I was in the waiting area for my appointment, a sweet lady came in with her mom and two young daughters,  one was about 4 and the other had some disabilities that required tubes in the nose and she was still in a stroller. Well, the grandma kept the 4 year old busy by playing with her and talking about her different toys she had with her.  I was so entertained and also intrigued.  I couldn't believe how much she resembled Mary as a toddler.  Very distinct features like my Mary.  I smiled a loving smile at them letting them know I enjoyed their company.  Then, the grandma said the toddlers name.... Can you guess what it was?? Yup, Mary! My heart swelled up and I felt a rush of love flow through me.  Then I looked back at them again and caught  the little sister with disabilities staring at me so I blinked, she blinked back. We blinked to each other with smiles a few more times and then they were called to their appointment.  What a treat.  I feel so blessed and had to share it with whoever would like to hear. There is magic out there, there really is, we just have to keep our eyes and our hearts open to see.  Most importantly  #Believe 👼

Celebrating DaD


I love celebrating my dad ️ ~ my dad was full of love, wisdom, support, encouragement and  gave the best hugs ever!  

Dear DaD,

I miss you everyday and will love you forever!  
You truly listened to me and I loved it when you told me (so often):. "That's a great idea!"  
Those four words were empowering, they made me feel so special and so smart that my dad thought I had a great idea. Thank you for that!!

I am who I am today because of the power of example you were to me.  Because of you, I love unconditionally, give freely without expecting something in return, enjoy the journey, cherish moments, feel no jealousy or envy, respect myself and live with no judgement.  
Happy Father's Day in Heaven dad!  I'll always be your #1 fan and your little girl!

Sam

 Sam 5-31-19

Life really is so delicate and precious.  Every moment should be cherished and love should be given more freely, without a second thought. 

I got some news Wednesday night that shocked my heart and made me cry.  A dear dear friend who I used to work with was diagnosed with  colon cancer and caught it too late.  

I was told he only had a short amount of time left so I had to see him as soon as I could.... That was tonight, in his home with his beautiful family staying so strong, telling me how grateful they were to have him as their dad even if for only this long.  His brother broke my heart as he told me something close to my own heart, he said he was truly losing his best friend.  Yes, I cried.

But my friend Sam was surrounded by so much love it warmed my heart knowing how many lives are better because he was in it...his light will live on in all of us because of the kind loving memories he supplied us with. 

Thank you Sam!  


Oh and as I stepped out of the taxi in front of my friends home, there was a feather of love right at my feet.... Giving me extra stregnth as I could stay strong.   Thank you my angels of love from above for never letting me down. ❤️👼

Notes from the Universe


 I don't always read these daily notes I receive from the Universe, but I always seem to at poignant times.

MARY EMMA MCCRAW


On this day 11 years ago...... you left this earth and a piece of my hear broke.  But then you sent this little red bird to comfort me and remind me that all my cries are heard.  You've never left my side, I know that now and for that I am grateful and will continue to share your love with the world to spread hope and inspiration in this knowing that there is much more to life when we leave this earth.  
Thank you for being my angel and connected to my soul.
Always and Forever,  Yours truly ~ xoxo

Caring Cardinals - Leesah Marie

On August 4th, 2018, Mary sent me the sweetest Birthday gift.  She connected me to beautiful soul,  Leesah Marie Noon.   
Leesah started a website and a facebook page called Caring Cardinals.  
One of my Little Red Bird fans sent me a personal message with a link to her page.   I reached out to say Hi and we have been non stop connected since.   She is definitely a soul sister.   So funny and synchronistic how I was supposed to be Lisa Marie but my dad changed it to Jennifer Marie before we left the hospital.  I changed my name to Jeni as Leesah changed her name from Lisa to Leesah.  We are twinkies.... she is so fun and funny.  She's showered me with gifts from her Caring Cardinals collection.  I am so blessed.   She loves Mary and everything about us.   She even used Mary's name on her website as an example of one of her cards.   We haven't met yet, but hopefully soon.   
Thank you Mary for bringing me Leesah!



Caring Cardinals


March is Mary month, as she left us to go to heaven in March 2008.   Mary starts showing her presence to me in the most special ways in the poignant months of the year and March is one of them.  This year she is sending a bunny rabbit.  Each morning for the past week I open my front door to a random lil bunny in the middle of my yard.  Thank you sis for forever being by my side, sending me signs and connecting me to wonderful souls.  Most recently,  Leesah Marie Noon, the author and creator of www.caringcardinals.com.

I am so grateful for her signs, they bring comfort in what could be sad times.
